Theworldwasminetoclaim
A bottle of lean, a gun to your jeans, and a little faith in me
A plane in the sky, the only starlight on this never-ending street
The cameras and cops they coulda been stars on our mother's new screens
On our mother's new screens
All of these traps, and all of these street signs
None of them will be yours or mine
But I'll be your empire
Just stay alive, stay alive, stay alive
Dear life, today I woke up with the same face
With the same hate
I woke up with the same brain
With the same pictures in it and with the same pain
And today might as well be our last day
Feels like we met yesterday
Till you stabbed me in the heart
And hit me with the same pain
I can't keep going on with the same pace
And all in all I'll never win this damn race
I don't know why but I feel like all I do is a damn waste
What a damn shame, stuck in the same frame
Surrounded by love's flames, honestly I'm exhausted
And it's only you that I can blame
What the hell is going on?
Look what you did to me,
Look what you did to all of us
I miss the days when rap was just about rap
I miss the days when I had no shit on my damn mind
I miss the days when my phone would ring
And we'd talk about things
Without having to ask "how bad?"
I miss the days when I would see my mama
I miss the days when I could see my father
Shit, I actually never knew that faggot
Guess he was screwing hoes instead of being present
I miss the days I wasn't attached to many feelings
Nights when home wasn't something I saw when I'm dreaming
I miss the days when my inspiration had no ceiling
And I could write all day about the shit that I was livin'
I miss the love that didn't involve sex
I miss the love that did not involve stress
Shit I miss the love that had me feeling blessed
What wouldn't I give to feel this pain less
I miss the days ...
Drinks didn't mean Vodka
Kisses didn't go further, boring wasn't sober
I miss the days when high was on swings
Bitches had no strings
And I didn't act on karma
Days weren't burdens
Pains weren't lessons
And the key to happiness was the one for the home's entrance
I miss the days when times would change
But days would stay the same
Home would feel safe
And the world was mine to claim
All of these traps, and all of these street signs
None of them will be yours or mine
But I'll be your empire
Just stay alive, stay alive, stay alive
Just stay alive, stay alive, stay alive
A plane in the sky, the only starlight on this never-ending street
The cameras and cops they coulda been stars on our mother's new screens
On our mother's new screens
All of these traps, and all of these street signs
None of them will be yours or mine
But I'll be your empire
Just stay alive, stay alive, stay alive
Dear life, today I woke up with the same face
With the same hate
I woke up with the same brain
With the same pictures in it and with the same pain
And today might as well be our last day
Feels like we met yesterday
Till you stabbed me in the heart
And hit me with the same pain
I can't keep going on with the same pace
And all in all I'll never win this damn race
I don't know why but I feel like all I do is a damn waste
What a damn shame, stuck in the same frame
Surrounded by love's flames, honestly I'm exhausted
And it's only you that I can blame
What the hell is going on?
Look what you did to me,
Look what you did to all of us
I miss the days when rap was just about rap
I miss the days when I had no shit on my damn mind
I miss the days when my phone would ring

Just stay alive, stay alive, stay alive
Just stay alive, stay alive, stay alive
